    YellowBelly Spider
    OK so a while back I purchased what I considered to be one of the best looking spiders I've ever seen.I noticed a little color on her belly but really thought nothing of it but,the more I look at her the more I begin to think she carries the yellowbelly gene.I snapped a bunch of bellyshots though she wasnt being very cooperative!:rolleyes:
    Anyways the flash kinda washes out the color but I think these pics should give a general idea.I'm just looking for some other herper opinions:salute:

    That yellow speckling is common on allot of spiders..

    My spider has the same belly... some dark flecking across the belly, and the same coloring.

    Hot spidey though.

    And if anyone does have a yellowbelly spider I hope the post it. Always wondered what the YB gene might do to a spider.

    Same with the ivory spider... considering what ivory does to the pastel head... I think an ivory spider might be kinda sexy in spades!

    I take it all back and will pay you interest for having to read such drivel.

    It's a great looking striped spider, but the slight checkering ON the belly tells me that it's probably not a yellow belly. The belly scales of yellow bellys are very clean and white or slight yellowing or with slight yellow patches. The checkering that yellow belly's are noted for should be on the sides adjacent to the belly scales but not ON them.
